Slope and Deflection

The slope in a deflected beam is described as an angle in radians made by the tangent of the section with the original axis of the beam. The deflection at any point on the axis of the beam is defined as the lateral displacement of the point before and af…

Chapter 15, Problem 15.12P

For Problems 15.7 through 15.I4, use the formula method.

15.12 A 4 -in.-diameter, 12 -ft-long solid steel shaft having a circular cross section is used as a simply supported beam. A concentrated load P is to be applied at midspan. Calculate the maximum allowable load P. Consider deflection. The allowable deflection is 0. 5 0 in. Consider the beam weight.

Compute the initial deflection of the beam at midspan under service loads with the following specifications: f'c = 4000 psi, 36-inch height, depth of rebar assumed to be 3 inches less than the height, 16-inch width, 4 #9 bars (tension), Grade 60 rebar, 30' clear spans, service loads of: DL = 0.25k/ft, LL = 1.2k/ft. The DL does NOT include self-weight of the beam or of the precast concrete deck planks that have a weight of 60 PSF. The beam picks up a tributary width of 12 feet. Also, note that this beam is continuous and is the middle beam of 5 equal spans. Check the initial deflections against the ACI deflection requirements. Then calculate the long-term deflections and check those against the ACI requirements. For both situations, assume that finish materials will be attached to the beam. Last: Instead of performing a structural analysis to determine the maximum deflection in the beam, conservatively figure that the maximum deflection will be 60% of what it would have been for a…

A simply supported beam is subjected to a uniform service dead load of 1.2 kips/ft (including the weight of the beam), a uniform service live load of 1.8 kips/ft. The beam is 40 feet long, and it has continuous lateral support. If A992 steel is used, and the live load deflection must not exceed L/360, Is a W30 x 99 adequate? (for moment, shear, and deflection).

For a beam with a length of 200 mm, a width of 20 mm and a height of 3 mm, calculate the maximum deflection if the beam was cantilevered, had a Young’s modulus of 207 GPa and had a load of 2.5 N applied at the free end.
